Erm, have you got a mo?
There’s something you should know
It’s about Billy Bird
He left without a word
And what is more I’ve heard
He had apparently been taking liberties with the company accounts
Somebody must’ve sneaked ‘cause there’s a vacant seat
And that’s what I’m here about
You see these opportunities, opportunities
They don’t come along too often
Opportunities, opportunities
You’ve gotta take them whenever you can
La la la, la la la, la la la, la la la
Opportunities, opportunities
You’ve got to grab them with both of your hands
I know, it is a shame
But if you play that game
You’ve no one else to blame
But… how’s the family?
Perhaps your husband’s free to play some golf with me
This couldn’t be your son
No, no, you’re much too young
And could this be your daughter too?
You really are a wonder
I’d envy anyone who gets to be under you
You know these opportunities, opportunities
They don’t come along too often
Opportunities, opportunities
You’ve gotta take them whenever you can
La la la, la la la, la la la, la la la
Opportunities, opportunities
You’ve got to grab them with both of your hands
Good morning, Officers
What’s that? You’d like a word
Concerning William Bird, hmm…
Well yes, we had a drink
He went straight home I think
This isn’t blood… it’s ink
So I have muddy shoes, what’s that to do with you?
To own a shovel isn’t odd
Hey, take your hands off me!
I will come quietly, just tell me
Tell me if I’ve got the job?!
Because these…
Opportunities, opportunities
They don’t come along too often
Opportunities, opportunities
You’ve gotta take them whenever you can
Opportunities, opportunities
They have come and gone too often
Opportunities, opportunities
You’ve got to grab them with both of your hands
When opportunity knocks… you gotta… urghh
